Beautiful character cottage in quiet country settings. keep the fire cranking and make the most of the outdoor bath under the stars.

Comfortable, clean and a fun place to stay. We were cycling the Alps to Ocean trail, and this was ideally place for our final night. It's 300m from the trail. Though note the description of location the site provides was not right (it says east of trail, when it's west). They'd also provide some food, which helped.

Limestone Cottage is a real gem. The hosts are friendly, welcoming and very helpful with great suggestions of things to see and do in the area. Nestled on a hillside surrounded by farmland it is quiet and peaceful, at night the stars are simply magnificent - you must take an outdoor bath on a clear night, it is something you'll never forget! During our stay we visited Oamaru, Dunedin, the Moeraki Boulder and the Elephant rocks, the location is a perfect base to explore from. However it is also a great place to come for a quiet getaway, a cosy cottage to curl up in and read a good book in front of the fire. Will definitely be back again!

Limestone Cottage is nestled on a hillside on a farm, and is the perfect place to 'get away from it all'. My partner, small dog, and myself were delighted with our stay in this intimate cottage (perfect for 2 people), that is loving appointed to feel a real treat to stay at. Our hosts were welcoming, and very helpful with local knowledge of things to see and do. Highly recommend this little gem.

25 mins drive to Oamaru. 30 minutes to Kurow. 5 mins to Elephant Rocks. 10 minutes to Duntroon. On the Vanished World tourist trail and Alps to Ocean cycle trail. A wonderful place to recover and recuperate or just relax and enjoy the view. Have a bath outside under the stars.

Ask us about our limestone carving workshops for beginners. A wonderful place for an artist's retreat.
